There will be fireworks when Riverside Stadium host an intriguing Championship clash between Middlesbrough and Norwich City in a meeting of two sides enjoying decent form. Boro secured a hard-fought 1-0 victory over QPR last time out and are now targeting their fourth win of the campaign. They have won 60% of their last 10 home matches, scoring an impressive 2.00 goals per game. Star signing Will Lankshear will be the man to watch after scoring the winner at QPR, while Sebastian Berhalter has recovered from his minor injury.
Norwich City, on the other hand, head into the match on the back of a confidence-boosting 2-1 victory over Birmingham City in midweek. The Canaries have won 50% of their last 10 matches and have scored 1.70 goals per game during that spell. Their away record is also respectable, with a 50% win rate, although they have conceded 1.50 goals per game on the road. Ahmed, Mahovo and Topic remain unavailable through injury, but Norwich will fancy their chances of causing problems.
As Middlesbrough have won 60% of their last 10 home games and Norwich often struggle on the road, Home Win should be considered. Additionally, Middlesbrough Over 1.5 and Over 2.5 goals total bets seem tempting (goth sides average at least 3.00 total goals per game recently).
This Championship match will be played on Saturday 12 September 2026 at 15:00.
